That's 1/4 of the planet if you think about the numbers simply but only 5 billion people fall into general work age range (18 - 65) so that's 40% of the planet have no employment stability.
DHS nominee Markwayne Mullin is one of the most active stock-traders in the Senate โ and violated the STOCK Act against insider trading as recently as last August.
He currently holds stock in L3Harris, which has millions in contracts with ICE and FEMA.
The grift continues.

If you ever wondered how Trump subverted a traditional republican like Marco Rubio-- this was it -- promising him Cuba. Rubio getting Cuba makes him a hero to the Miami Cuban republicans which easily translates toward being re-elected forever.

I'm deeply sorry for our service members but the real tragedy is the war itself.
If you care about the Internet, be afraid of this -- it has bipartisan support for banishing Internet anonymity. And keep in mind that non anonymous users are more valuable to Google, Facebook, etc so it likely has big money backing it.

Anyone want to wager on when $4 gas shows up in the U.S.? My bet is by end of May.

Don't get me wrong -- I'm delighted to see Kristi Noem out but Markwayne Mullins is actually less qualified than Noem to run DHS. DHS is huge. At least Noem was a governor which means she has experience running something large (a state). Mullins lacks that experience.

So much for any free speech in Israel. Terrifying.

If you think ProtonMail will keep you safe -- they won't.
"A court record reviewed by 404 Media shows privacy-focused email provider Proton Mail handed over payment data related to a Stop Cop City email account to the Swiss government, which handed it to the FBI."

A Nation that can fund a war instantly, but debates funding healthcare has a values problem, not a budget problem.
A US submarine sinking a lonely, dinky Iranian surface ship an ocean away from the theater of the main conflictโand 9000
miles from North Americaโmakes it pretty clear the US is fighting a general war, without the declaration required by the Constitution. www.reuters.com/world/asia-p...
Your next sale won't be a 1000-seat order from Google.
But is your homepage written as if this is the target?
Formal, obtuse, corporate-speak, pretending to be a mature, stable company.
Youโre alienating your actual best customers.
Itโs looking increasingly likely that Kristi Noem and Lewandowski funneled almost 200 million in government money to a company that is run by her friend and that nobody can give an address for.
Oh, and it was 8 days old when it was awarded the contract.
Screenshot of an X post by Senator Tom Cotton saying Iran has been an imminent threat to the United States for 47 years and that the president was right to act. Below is a Fox News segment with Cotton speaking while footage labeled โU.S. Central Command โ Unclassifiedโ shows a strike.
โImminent.โ You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.
Iran is a sovereign nation. Trump has no rights here to demand that he be a part of picking their new leader. This is madness.

I have to believe that dirty tricks like this are why Talarico defeated Crockett in the Texas primary.
And, yes, this will happen in the midterms and it will almost certainly be effective. Damn it.

The Daily Beast wrote about the dangers of โelectabilityโ and it hits on what I also was trying to convey. I get wanting a win but the people who often are collateral damage in that are the Black women who the party depends on the most www.thedailybeast.com/james-talari...

The fact that Kansas invalidated her driver's license even though SHE NEVER CHANGED HER GENDER MARKER argues strongly for state / federal tracking of trans people. Apparently even a simple name change nowadays can trigger tracking of you.

Steve Jobs once described the Mac as a "bicycle for the mind" and RB is a great example of that.
Totally recommended.
Note: RB is a batch tool for handling image conversions like "take all these files and resize them to 25% while also converting them to JPEG and making them Black and White".
I just used Retro Batch (RB) for the first time in maybe 5 years and it was a FANTASTIC experience. RB is one of those great examples of a perfect Mac app. Brilliantly simple. Utterly powerful. Saves you tons and tons of time.
